In the face of the social and economic crisis in Honduras caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the aftermath of Hurricanes Eta and Iota, which struck back-to-back in November 2020, youth beneficiaries from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)-funded Empleando Futuros project have dedicated their efforts to helping those most in need of support.  Through their resilience and motivation to be of help to others in times of adversity, the youth beneficiaries became heroes within their communities.
